FX.co ★ Daily analysis of USDX for January 02, 2017

The index ended the year below the negative territory, as it found support around 101.97, where a key demand area is located across the board. However, current moves should be taken as corrective ones, because the overall structure remains pointing to the upside and further gains are expected following New Year Eve's holidays. Next resistance lies at the 102.53 level and MACD indicator is favoring that scenario.
